The most quoted salvation verse, John 3:16, is here in this story, Jesus talks to Nicodemus. He also talks about the importance of being born again. We are invited to be part of God’s family. We ARE part of His family, when we accept Him as our Savior. We show this by being baptized. This slide presentation includes the basic lesson, songs, a craft, and an invitation to become a child of God.
Matthew3, Mark 1, Luke 3
John the Baptist prepared the way for Jesus by telling others to get ready for the Messiah. The people repented and John baptized them. What does repent mean? What is baptism? These are the concepts we explore with this story. The Bible tells us that Jesus washes us and we will be as white as snow. One activity is to make snowflakes.
